The Frozen Star by Jessie Lane

Kay had discovered secrets, lies, shocking truths, and even
love in a strange new world hidden from humans. Everything she thought she knew
was turned upside down when she found out three things:

- She wasn’t human.
- She has a power she can't control.
- And there was a possibility that she had found a way to cure the cancer that
was rapidly killing her with that very same power.
Then, just when she was on the precipice of gaining everything she wanted and
saving her own life, tragedy struck. Will she be able to fight her way back to
Ryan and save herself in the process?

Kira had lived a terrifying and confusing life of servitude and abuse under
Lord Donovan and his son, Cole. It was an existence that had stripped away her
emotions, and eventually, her reason to keep fighting. Just when she thought
freedom was within reach, Lord Donovan struck again, ruining her plans and
almost killing her in the process. When she awoke from her injuries, it was to
stunning revelations that would change her life forever. Changes that she was
not entirely sure she wanted to embrace.

My Thoughts:

Jessie Lane is one of my go-to authors. When asked to read and review The Frozen Star
for her I didn’t even stop to think. The
answer was so easy, DUH! Of course, I would.

The Frozen Star takes right off where The Burning Star left
off. Lord Donavon is holding Kira
hostage while telling her lies about why she is orphaned and living with
him. Kay is about to find out
everything she knows is not quite the truth.

I love that many of the characters from book one are found
in book two and that Jessie Lane introduces new characters that add so much to
the story. The plot of the story is
told over a very short time period, but yet there is so much detail and depth
that the story is not rushed or parts missing.
Jessie Lane gives enough detail to each setting and character that you
feel as if you are traveling with them and seeing what they are seeing.

My only complaint is that book three in this series, The
Divine star, is not available yet so I have to wait to find out if Kira and Kay
fulfill their prophecy. This entire
series is one I highly recommend and anxiously look forward to more about the
old and the new characters.
